About Sasha
Sasha Dineen is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who draws on humanistic, person-centred ideas to support people through difficult times. She holds a BA (Hons) degree in Humanistic Counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sasha brings five years of personal-practice experience alongside work with workplace Employee Assistance Programmes.
Her sessions focus on practical, short-term help when that is needed, and more open-ended support for longer issues.
How Sasha works
She combines solution-focused techniques with a humanistic approach to help people make sense of their feelings. This often means working on stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship and intimacy-related issues, grief, self-esteem, and life changes. Sasha also supports people with addictions, sleep and eating concerns, ADHD, bipolar and compassion fatigue, and offers help around parenting and career-related stress.
Additional areas she addresses include trauma, abuse, domestic violence, abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, and long-term illness or chronic pain. She has experience delivering counselling to adults and young people, and she uses creative arts when it helps a person to express things they find hard to say.
Sasha also teaches counselling and runs courses in mental health, wellbeing, stress and mindfulness for others who work in helping roles. Outside work she plays badminton, swims in the sea when the weather allows, and enjoys board games and jigsaw puzzles. Her style is down-to-earth and practical, with an emphasis on what people can do between sessions to feel steadier.

Online support options
Humanistic and Practical Approaches for Online Support
Person-centred counselling focuses on listening and understanding a person as an individual. The counsellor creates a non-judgemental space to help someone speak openly and reflect on their feelings, which can help with anxiety, low mood and relationship concerns.Solution-focused work concentrates on small, practical steps that move someone towards their goals. It is useful for stress, coping with life changes, and short-term issues where clear plans and tasks can make a difference.
Sasha will work together with a person to decide which approach fits best. That means discussing the problem, trying different ways of working, and adjusting pace and focus based on what helps most. The right method often emerges during the first few sessions rather than being fixed in advance.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when visual contact matters. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and fit therapy around everyday life.
